Lu Lixing fell to his knees.
Now I can only tell the truth.
There is plague in Lu every summer.
It often affects thousands of people.
The specific reason has not been found yet.
Some people are lucky and can get through it.
More people die from the disease.
Believing the witch doctors' words, the locals would throw corpses into the river. Later, this became more extreme, with those infected with the plague being thrown directly into the river. Some, fearing the spread of the disease, would even commit suicide by jumping into the river.
It's called a plague, but it's not that scary.
Some can even last for a month.
Lu Lixing also thought that it would affect the Fengshan ceremony.
I just wanted to keep this matter secret.
Unexpectedly, the plague spread to Onoze.
It even disturbed Emperor Feng.
Lu Lixing remained nonchalant and said softly, "Your Majesty, don't worry. This is all a small matter. It will be fine in a few days. It won't have any impact on you when you perform the Fengshan ceremony."
"You are as stupid as a pig!" Emperor Feng glared at him and said angrily, "When I was enshrined in the Fengshan Temple on Mount Tai, no matter how small the matter was, if the plague spread, it would surely attract criticism. Moreover, as the King of Lu, you actually watched the plague spread without stopping it, and even believed the witch doctor's words?"
Ning Que sighed beside him.
It's terrible to have someone like him!
It is even more difficult for the people in Lu to survive.
Emperor Feng was completely at his wit's end. He didn't know whether it was good or bad to have such a stupid and foolish king. It would be better if he was a little less stupid. At least he would be easier to control.
"Xiao Ning."
"My brother is here."
"I leave the plague matter entirely to you and Divine Doctor Chang." Emperor Feng looked at Ning Que. "Stop the plague at all costs. Also, try not to publicize this matter."
"I understand."
"As for you..." Emperor Feng looked at Lu Lixing fiercely, as if he were staring at prey. "Do your utmost to assist Prince Ning. No matter what he needs, you must satisfy him!"
"promise!"
Lu Lixing had no choice but to nod repeatedly.
After walking out of the tent, he looked embarrassed.
"This time, King Laoning is helping us."
"It's all for the people." Ning Que looked at Lu Lixing, "I'll go back first. King Lu can mobilize doctors now. Not only to Daye Lake, but also to Daye City, which you just mentioned."
Ono Castle also belongs to Jibei County.
It's only about a few dozen miles away from here.
According to Lu Lixing, Daye City has been sealed off.
There are about three thousand households and tens of thousands of people in the city!
"good."
The two separated temporarily.
Ning Que prepared to return to the tent first.
He was ordered to go to the quarantine area. It was easy to get in, but it was difficult to get out, so he had to explain everything to Shen Qinghe first.
"Hmm? Qinghe?"
Ning Que frowned.
I saw Shen Qinghe sleeping on the bed.
She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and shivered.
The lips and nails are cyanotic and the face is pale.
“Cold…cold…”
"Qinghe?!"
Ning Que was suddenly shocked.
He quickly reached out and grabbed Shen Qinghe's wrist.
The fingers are like pressing the strings of a guitar, tight and forceful.
Qi is stagnant and the meridians are tight.
The pulse is stringy and rapid.
My back felt cold all over and my teeth were chattering.
"You...go away!"
Although Shen Qinghe was fuzzy, she gritted her teeth and persevered, trying to push Ning Que away. However, Ning Que held her tightly in his arms and whispered, "Don't worry. I've been taking various medicinal herbs since I was young, and my physique is much stronger than that of an ordinary person. Ordinary plagues have no effect on me."
He was not comforting Shen Qinghe.
These are all true.
As a descendant of a royal family, Ning Que had been taking various tonics since childhood. Even after reaching Kunlun Mountain, he often took snow ginseng pills.
"tractor!"
"What are your orders, my Lord?"
"Inform Pavilion Master Bu and tell him that Qinghe is ill. I will personally treat her. You and Bai Yu will lead the people to seal off Daye Lake for the next few days. Remember to bring more people and avoid any rumors."
"Your Majesty, I'll go with you!"
"Shut up."
Ning Que picked up Shen Qinghe and rushed to the quarantine area. He didn't know what the plague was, nor how it was transmitted, so he had to avoid it for the time being.
"Iron Ox, I know what you're thinking."
"You don't know medicine, and you can't help me if you go in."
"There's a lot going on out there."
"I feel at ease with you here."
"promise!"
Tie Niu nodded with tears in his eyes.
Now he only hated himself for not being able to help Ning Que.
"Stop crying."
"Are you doubting my medical skills?"
“I don’t dare…”
"Isn't that the end?"
Ning Que walked into the isolation area without hesitation. Chang Baicao frowned, sizing him up and Shen Qinghe in his arms.
"The princess..."
"Um."
"That's impossible!"
Chang Baicao wore a crude mask.
This was also what Ning Que had taught him before.
After all, illness comes from the mouth.
This type of mask is similar to the Wu mask. The gauze is folded up and then the two ends are cut to make straps. It can only be said that it has a certain protective effect.
He first handed Ning Que a mask, then checked Shen Qinghe's pulse. After a moment, his expression also changed. "I remember that the princess had no contact with patients. How could she have contracted the plague?"
"Send it in first."
"OK."
Ning Que carried Shen Qinghe into the tent.
While Chang Baicao was examining him, he looked through the medical records. He had specifically instructed that, especially in the early stages of an epidemic, it was best to record all symptoms. This was primarily for future preparation, so that if a similar epidemic occurred again, the right treatment could be prescribed.
